Lyrics

I can clearly see the ocean
I can almost feel the breeze
I wish life could be this simple
I'd stay here and never leave
But he said "Son, you must make something of yourself"
"And you must listen carefully"

If you want it
You have to take
If you want it that badly
If you want to see Van Halen
Buy a ticket Son
Nothing here is free

Someday soon I'll make my Dad proud
I'll become his childhood dream
We are heading for the big time
In my mind I play make believe
He said, "Son if you want to fly like eagles,
Don't hang around with turkies"


If you want it
You have to take
If you want it that badly
If you want to see James Taylor
Buy a ticket Son
Nothing here is free

Do you have what it takes
In this world it's make of break
Minimize your mistakes
You have to be strong
Or else your gone

If you want it
You have to take
If you want it that badly
If you want to see John Mayer
Buy a ticket Son
Nothing here is free

If you want it
You have to take
If you want it that badly
If you want to see Dave Mathews
Buy a ticket Son
Nothing here is free
